THE LOOK AND FEEL
A modern yet comfortable townhouse that offers a twist on a Georgin coaching Inn, where old meets new in a setting that is uncluttered and welcoming. Palettes of rich dark blues are mixed with contrasting orange accents - fresh and contemporary with traditional elements - in keeping with the heritage of the building. Think modern-country with a focus on texture and warmth that feels both cosy and contemporary.
THE FACILITIES
Being able to sip local ciders, before stepping outside onto country lanes in the heart of a rural Devon village, is the ultimate treat. Service is both friendly and attentive, and four-legged friends are welcome to stay overnight, with treats and a water bowl provided.
